Graphic Novel Part 4:

Designing a Web Page through Weebly.com

Due: Friday, March 22, 2013 by 11:59PM

Mission: Contribute to our digital graphic novel by designing an interactive multi-media page for your passage.

Required Elements for Web Page

1. Title for your page

2. Caption for your page: What is going on in your assigned passage? Who is in your assigned passage?

3. Statement analyzing author's theme: What is a topic you see in your passage? What is Golding saying about this topic?

4. Music Video/YouTube Video: Think about the topic your group decided to focus on for the passage. What are some songs/videos that discuss this topic? Include the lyrics to the song if you choose a music video.

Note: you may choose a youtube video that is just a song; it does not have to have a produced music video to go along with it.

Note II: Keep it school-friendly.

5. Famous Quote: Google famous quotes regarding your topic. Choose one you think suits the general message Golding is sending through your passage.

6. Wordle: Choose important words seen in your passage. Put them in a wordle.net text rendering.

7. Text Rendering: choose one word, one phrase, and one sentence that stands out to you in the passage or best represents the passage.

8. Three pictures: one piece of art (painting, drawing, etc); one photograph; one meme. Write a brief description and cite your source for each.

Group Roles and Jobs

(Suggested) Process:

  1. Receive assigned passage
  2. Divide up work load/job roles
  3. Settle on a specific topic that pertains to your passage.
  4. Collect data early on and share it with a group through e-mail or google doc.

Tips:

  1. Begin researching for your information early on!
  2. Send links to your e-mail or save in a google doc so they are ready to access for Thursday's class in the computer lab.
  3. Make clear who is responsible for what role.
  4. Right when you get your passage, analyze it for the topic you want to explore.
